Scottsdale Federal Crimes Defense Attorney

Defending Your Rights on the Federal Level

In general, if you are charged with a crime on the state level, you will
be prosecuted in state court, and if convicted, you will face time in
county jail or state prison. There are some crimes, however, which are
illegal on both the state and federal level, and it is possible for you
to be charged with a federal crime in addition to a state criminal charge.

Being charged with a federal offense is a very different process, and you
will need a
criminal defense lawyer who is not only permitted to practice in federal courts, as Attorney Craig
is, but also one who can match the prosecution conducting the investigation,
which will likely have extensive resources, such as the FBI (Federal Bureau
of Investigation), CIA (Central Intelligence Agency), or DEA (Drug Enforcement
Administration). Another difference between federal crimes and state crimes
is the penalties. A federal conviction means that if you are sentenced
to prison, it will be in a federal prison, and the fines are likely much
more steep.

Randall J. Craig have defended are:
